    Does it matter what happens to CCFC?

    I'm exactly the same. I think its partly down to the fact that I now have no expectation or hope of anything getting better. These days I tend to get more frustrated at the business and politics side of things as until those issues are resolved there isn't really a successful path forward on the...

    Steven Pressley stamps on rumours he's lost the dressing room

    Looking at the photo the CT printed it shouldn't be too hard to get someone else who was sat in the same place to verify what was happening.

    Council admits Ricoh Arena was not sustainable without CCFC

    Rossborough said he was approached two years ago to discuss a potential Wasps move to Coventry and the two clubs working together.

    Council admits Ricoh Arena was not sustainable without CCFC

    Think in the know needs to give the PR firm a ring in the morning as they obviously haven't briefed him on all the facts.

    Nick Eastwood at a fans forum. Did Wasps PR company not brief you on that?

    Council admits Ricoh Arena was not sustainable without CCFC

    The accounts have only been released this week so the judge would not have had access to them. He may have had access to the books from the period in question but as he's not an accountant that probably isn't of any significance. As far as I'm aware now part of the JR was a forensic examination...

    Council admits Ricoh Arena was not sustainable without CCFC

    Let's try this, you desperately need to sell your house. What do you do: 1) say you don't need to sell your house but if anyone were to make an offer you would have a look at their offer but you could quite happily keep living there for years. 2) put your house on the market Of course we now...

    Council admits Ricoh Arena was not sustainable without CCFC

    So we are now ignoring anything that happened in the past. Anything that SISU did under Ranson and Delieu's leadership is off limits, any of Fishers previous statements can no longer be mentioned? Or is it just when CCC are found out that this applies? You're the only one going on about...

    Steven Pressley stamps on rumours he's lost the dressing room

    I'm not sure he's watching the match at all. Maybe he's watching something else on his iPad and that's what he was showing Madine.

    Council admits Ricoh Arena was not sustainable without CCFC

    There's more than one lie that's come to light in the last couple of days. I suggest you go back and read the thread from the beginning. I would suggest that by creating a false picture of how ACL was performing it very much impacted on the sale process. Although there wasn't really a process...

    Council admits Ricoh Arena was not sustainable without CCFC

    Exactly, they did't say it was being sold. They also made repeated claims about the performance of ACL without the club which would lead you to believe they could quite happily sit on ACL until SISU moved on. Nobody seriously thought they were holding talks for 2 years with Wasps, they seemed to...

    Council admits Ricoh Arena was not sustainable without CCFC

    I'm saying there should have been a fair and open process without the Council and Higgs lying about the status of ACL. I would have expected the club to bid, I would also have expected the fans to be pressing the club to bid if it was known ACL was being sold. Have you been in a coma the last...

    Council admits Ricoh Arena was not sustainable without CCFC

    Can you give me a link to the the statement from Lucas that ACL was being placed on the market for sale with a 200 year lease extension.

    Council admits Ricoh Arena was not sustainable without CCFC

    I didn't say at what price, just say what is for sale. I can't understand why people are objecting to the idea of a fair and open sale process with the people of Coventry being consulted.

    Council admits Ricoh Arena was not sustainable without CCFC

    I don't believe I have actually said they did want to do a deal have I? Although saying that I think it would be somewhat ridiculous to assume, were the right deal available, they wouldn't have been interested. What I have said is that there should have been a fair and open process based on...

    Council admits Ricoh Arena was not sustainable without CCFC

    MMM I don't think you're a stupid person so I really don't know why you are finding this so hard to understand. Rewind to before talks of average rent, unfettered freehold ownership or anything else. Fisher claimed that the rent was too high - it was; he claimed ACL were not viable without CCFC...

    Council admits Ricoh Arena was not sustainable without CCFC

    So you've seen both Wasps and CCFC's non-existent bid to purchase ACL with a 250 year lease, interesting to know. Care to tell the rest of us what both contain and on what basis Wasps would win?

    Council admits Ricoh Arena was not sustainable without CCFC

    What I'm suggesting it that there was an open process. Clearly state what is for sale and invite bids with a bidding deadline. Thats very different from saying I will listen to anyone who happens to rock up. We don't even know if the club were ever told a 200 year lease extension was a possibility.

    Council admits Ricoh Arena was not sustainable without CCFC

    The same old argument that SISU are 100% truthful but only when it suits the point you are trying to make.
